摘要

For these flexible material applications, including soft robotics, wearable devices, and biomedical implants constructed from polymers, elastomers, and biological tissues, precise predictions of the deformation and failure behaviors are most desired. Traditional assessment for these has relied highly on experimental analyses, which are always costly and time-consuming. This work outlines a machine learning-based methodology for predicting material deformation/fracture characteristics based on microstructure image data. We trained and validated several machine learning models on a dataset of 15,000 images categorized into five distinct classes, each representing a different stage of material deformation. By applying transfer learning and pre-trained models from five established machine learning architectures, including ResNet50, we achieved a classification accuracy of 99.81% with a processing time of 2.9 h. In other words, our method enables substantial reductions in complex experimental arrangements while introducing a scalable data-driven solution for material characterizations. The results make it clear that the ML models effectively capture the material property-deformation behavior relationship, promising high potential for future materials science and engineering applications.
